Clear choice

Nature's layer cake

Spotted this as I was driving around near Drumheller, Alberta, earlier this week.

Time for a tune

Feel like tickling the ivories? You can do so anytime in downtown Cochrane, Alberta, thanks to this sidewalk piano.

You are beautiful

This electrical box in Calgary was an unlikely location for an uplifting message.

Row on row (II)

Some experiments in post-processing here.
Did an imitation tilt-shift in iPhoto for the image above.
The one below was salvaged from a mediocre digitally zoomed photo, with a sepia-style tone added in Photoforge2 and a frame added in Flickr’s native online photo editing software by Aviary.

Adventures with Tintin

Another throwback from my vacation in Amsterdam last year, a neat (and unintentional) juxtaposition captured on my first afternoon in town.
